Create a Nonsense Word: Gabblerdictum

[Danger]

Not exactly, Danger. Noob is short for newbie, not "slang" for newbie.

'Newbie' itself is slang. The proper short-form for it would be 'newb'. 'Noob' is therefore a slang short-form for a slang term, making it a double-slang (or slong).

HILARIOUS!

I used to just think that you had no sense of humour. This would tend to confirm it.

My favorite (owed to the Travelocity Gnome) is "bullhonkery."

I've never heard that one before, but I like it.

Something a bit nonsensical now is the expression "swimming suit". I prefer to call it a swimming tuxedo.

I've found that any suit, tuxedo or otherwise, when thrown into water, pretty much just floats around for a while and then might or might not sink dependent upon density, absorbancy, etc.. I have yet to see one swim.

OUCH! BUUURRN! so you know, i have a *fantastmic sense of humor. just to prove it, here's a joke.

Me: How do you get an elephant out of a Safeway? (a safeway is a grocery store for those who don't know.)
You: i dunno, how?
Me: You take the 'S' out of Safe and the 'F' out of Way!


...Long pause while you think...
You: But... but... there's no F' in way!

HAHAHAHAHAHA!

you got to think about it, but man, soooo funny! seriously. people get sooo confused and then finally they just think out loud... and oh man, its great. i laugh. that;s my favorite joke.

I actually like that joke. I liked it the first time that I heard it 25 years ago, and I still like it.

Yeah, well... you guys like soccer too, so it figures. Even as a fellow member of the Commonwealth, those go beyond my cultural limitations. And I'd like to know where Nogger came up with "blinkin' flip" that he used a couple of months ago. I love it, and I've used it, but I don't know the derivation.

'Newbie' itself is slang. The proper short-form for it would be 'newb'. 'Noob' is therefore a slang short-form for a slang term, making it a double-slang (or slong).

"Noob" is not slang for "newb". It is a deliberate misspelling of it, done for whimsical effect. "Noob" remains short for "newbie".
